I've got several programs I've writen, and I wanted to know... How can you have a sort of control program... That will run the programs within the first program. Is there a way to do this? And is it rediculously difficult?

I need to be able to generate the next number in a sequence (9001, 9002, 9003,... ) and return it to the user. I need to be able to get the number, then the next person who queries it, will get the next number. I'm not exactly sure how to do this. I originaly thought an identity would work, but...

I'm not entierly sure if this can be done... But I've got a few fields that I *ALWAYS* want to display 2 decimals (ie 3.40, 2.35, 1.00) I'm not entierly sure how I can do this. Anyone know?

I've got a Crystal Report that's running through a VB.NET program. In the program, I'm filling the dataset that the report gets it's data from, and passing it to the report. For some reason, when I run the report, it's printing the details section twice... Instead of 1 2 3 I get 1 1 2 2 3 3...

I've got some Crystal Reports that are using multiple datasets. If I do not set the "report.SetDataSource", it prompts me to login to a database. If I set that, I can only set it to one dataset, it seems. How can I fix this? (not sure where to post this, so I'm posting it here...)

Here's the issue: I have Crystal Reports built using XSD files in the project. I have datasets built in code that will contan data that I need to put into the typed datasets of the project. Only problem is I'm not sure how to do this, other than 1 row at a time. There is potentially a LOT of...

I'm having an issue with the program I'm working on. It seems like for some reason, every once in a while the connection to the database errors out. It works fine most of the time, but on occasion, it errors out. It's not giving me ANY reasons for the errors, just error 5: Unspecified error. The...

I'm writing a program to copy a file to a static location, with a static name. I've got this working, but the problem is, I need to rename the original file. I need to add a z to the start of the file name of the original. How could I do this? Also, how can I get the open dialog box to not...

I've got several Crystal Reports that are being used in a VB.NET program. The problem is, even though I am not saving the data with these reports, they are huge!!! A simple report with only a few fields has grown to over 8mb in size. This is causing some big issues when I'm packaging it into an...

When I try to open a connection to my access database, it's suddenly not working anymore. I have a loop where the connection is opened several times, and it goes through it a few times, but then it won't connect anymore. It gives me an unspecified error. I can't, for the life of me, figure out...

I'm writing fields from a database into a text file. This is working just fine. The file is used to import into a different program. The problem I'm having is that the program will not accept 2 colums(dates, in text format mmddyy) if they are enclosed in quotes(ex "091105"). Is there a way to...

I'm having a VERY unusual problem here. I can compile and run a program, and even debug it, but when the program ends, Visual Studio takes 100% CPU and freeses up. This makes it very dificult to actually fix any bugs I find, as I'm sure you all can understand. I'm hoping that someone here might...

Hi! I'm having some issues with Crystal Reports... I have a report with unbound fields. I'm trying to bind them at runtime to code from a dataset, but I'm not really sure how I should go about this. Can anyone give me some ideas? I currently have: Dim crTES2 As New Timesheet Dim crTES...

I've got a report with unbound fields in it, and I need to bind those fields at runtime to specific fields in a dataset. Does anyone know how I would do this?

I am making a report to display some data from a dataset. How do I 1. Get multiple tables in the same dataset 2. How do I create a report that will accept that data? Can I just use the database where I'm pulling the data to create it, and it will automatically fill in the fields from the...

I've got some code that should just fill a dataset, transfer it into a DataTable, add the DataTable to another DataSet. I'm not sure why it's not working the error number I get is 91, and the description for it is 91. Very helpful... This is the code I'm using: Dim dsRet As DataSet Dim...

I have a report that reads from an access database. I use 2 tables in the report. Right now, the report is coded to go to a database on my HDD. How do I change where it looks for the database? Also, it isn't showing me any data... What do I need to do to have it fill the fields?

Part of the app I'm writing needs to send some files via email. Every workstation that will have this app installe will have an email address setup allready, but they won't all be going to the same server, so I can't just put in the IP. How can I retrieve the email setup information from the...

Hi everyone. I'm looking for a grid that's similar to a datagrid. I don't want to use a data grid because you allways have to click it to actually display the grid.(if someone knows how to fix that, that would be great too!) Anyway, this grid needs to be able to change the color of individual...
